We still can't believe how good this pot pie soup came out! We will say this one tops the list of our 101+ Instant Pot Recipes for sure! Packed with vegetables and rotisserie or leftover chicken it is a simple meal to prepare.

If you have ever made our Chicken Pot Pie Recipe with Cream of Chicken Soupthis is an easier way to enjoy without the crust! Yes you could certainly make this in a large pot on your stovetop too. Since the meat is already cooked you are making the veggies tender and warming everything together.

When we first got our pressure cooker it was summertime. We didn't want to turn on our oven and heat the house up even more so it was solid. Now we use it on a nightly basis though! Using leftover chicken we thought about our favorite food, and turned it into an IP creation. Later, made in a Ninja Foodi and was good all over again!

Ingredient Notess

Chicken was fresh but could use rotisserie. We used a boneless, skinless chicken breast but thighs would work great as well (this is a great leftover chicken recipe too). We like bite size pieces so it is easy to eat when done.

Can you use rotisserie chicken?

Yes you definitely could do that. In that case you could skip steps 1 and 2 since it is already cooked. dice both breasts on the bird and throw those in and proceed to step 3 to add everything else.

You will want a 15 oz. can of Vegetables. That makes this meal so easy to prepare. It gives you all the taste and nutrition you'd want in a meal, with a mixture of carrots, peas, green beans etc… You could use frozen veggies too. We like to add small Onion diced bits too.

You will want some Chicken broth or chicken stock are better than water to add flavor for the necessary liquid. Use more or less depending on how thick you want it.

Adding Heavy whipping cream makes the soup thicker and creamier too. If you want it more beyond that you can whisk cornstarch with a bit of cool water, set to saute at the end and stir that in too.

Dairy Free Option

If you need dairy free products it will turn out a bit different but you can use coconut milk or dairy free almond milk. To thicken make a roux out of cornstarch and water and saute with broth at the end. Let us show you how easy this pressure cooker soup is to make!

Can you add noodles?

If you wanted to add pasta you could. We shared this in a post we called Instant Pot chicken noodle casserole. Using 1 cup small bowtie or shells it adds a little more heartiness to the dish overall. add to the top, gently submerge and the 2 minute cook time will get them tender.

Equipment

Ingredients

1 large chicken breast, boneless, skinless, diced into bite size pieces
1 can vegetables, Libby's Mixed Vegetables, drained
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic salt
1 tbsp garlic, minced
1.5 cup chicken broth
1 cup heavy whipping cream
3 tbsp cornstarch+ 3 tbsp cool water to thicken

Instructions

Turn your pressure cooker to saute and add your diced chicken breast, olive oil, minced garlic and garlic salt. Mix together.
Saute until outside of chicken pieces are no longer pink. Turn pot off/cancel.
Add your chicken broth and can of Libby's mixed vegetables (that has been drained of liquid inside the can). Stir gently.
Close your pressure cooker lid and steam valve and set to high pressure for 2 minutes. Allow to naturally release for 2-3 minutes (to avoid a bit of liquid from coming out when you release the steam valve).
Release steam valve and lift lid. Turn pot off, then press saute button again.
Pour in your heavy whipping cream. In a small bowl whisk together your cornstarch and cold water/or cold chicken broth until smooth.
Add this into your pot and stir. Once it begins to bubble it will thicken.
Allow to bubble for about 2 minutes stirring slowly, then turn pot off. Will thicken even more as it sits.

How to save leftovers

Always allow the soup to cool and reach room temperature before transferring it into containers. Fresh is always best, but next day soup with pull apart bread is great too.

To reheat soup transfer it to a new dish that isn't cold from the fridge. In a microwave reheat in 30 second increments stirring in between times. On the stovetop reheat over low to medium heat stirring intermittently until it is as warm as you desire.
